Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 129 Who will Leon choose?
Valera knew very well that not every girl could be as lucky as her.

In fact, Lowry was only delaying the time of her being sold instead of actually saving her.

After all, as long as she is not a professional, Valeera can only accept the fate of being controlled by her parents.

All Lori could do to help her was to buy her a few more years of training time, and give her some training resources in the name of hiring her to do something.

Those things that happened in the back hill of the manor were not something that had to be done by Valera alone.

Instead, Lori had to waste a lot of time teaching her how to draw basic magic circles.

So, even though Lori kept saying that she saved herself...if she couldn't really draw it and force Marianne to accept the result, Lori wouldn't have been able to let her do these things...but Valera understood that her contribution was actually the smallest part.

It was normal for her to fight for herself, but she had no right to ask Master Lowry to waste his time and energy on her.

It was obvious that Master Lowry was also very busy during those years because of the sudden role change. Chesca said that he could only sleep four hours a day.

Although he used magic to ensure that he entered a real sleep, Master Lowry was only 8 years old at that time!

Every morning, Chesca had to apply a towel that had been steamed with restorative potion at just the right temperature to Master Lowry's eyes to prevent them from becoming swollen like fish eyes.

Of course, it was not only because of sleep, but also because the young master was reading almost all the time. Even when he was handling government affairs, he still had an open scroll at hand.

Master Lowry was able to catch up with the accumulation of others that took more than ten years in just four years, thanks to his unremitting efforts.

There are even many things that Valera cannot know... Chesca obviously loves her so much, but he still seizes the time to remind Master Lori to go back early. There must be some important reason.

It is probably because the requirements of the court wizard are too strict.

Therefore, Valera knew very well that saving herself was not something that could be done easily by Master Lori, it required a lot of effort.

Baron Lori is the one who is truly worthy of her lifelong following and gratitude.

This is why she still strives to become a professional even though she is no longer under her parents' control.

The training of a swordsman is indeed very hard.

It was a torture that almost required her to break and rebuild her spine. After all, she had been working hard to become a knight.

Although Agility Knights do have some similarities with Swordsmen, their true natures are actually very different.

The muscle training may be similar, but the core... is completely different.

Just switching up certain mindset can drive people crazy.

But compared to the misery of watching herself drown bit by bit in the past, no torture could stop her.

Such a Valeera would not be unable to understand girls who were similar to her in the past.

Without sufficient resources and relying only on one's own efforts, how many people with mediocre qualifications can reach the level of professionals?
But who really wants to drown?
Waiting for a price is not the same as waiting to get married. People who come to your door bring their wallets, not sincerity.

The fatter a person's wallet is, the worse his conditions are.

At this time, if they meet a marriage partner like Alex, no, even if it is just a lover, most girls would be willing.

Fortunately... Valeera breathed a sigh of relief... Fortunately, she can now decide her own destiny.

As long as she doesn't want to, even if Alex becomes the king of the ice field, he can't snatch her away from Lori.

Even if he had the courage to find the White Dragon King and ask her to be a dowry maid, it would be impossible.

Following such a lord is really, really reassuring.

Valeera flicked the feathers beside her ears gently... Even though she occasionally had a splitting headache from the torment, she didn't feel any dissatisfaction.

It would be great if Baron Lori could pay more attention to her.

Valera looked gently in the direction of the castle: she must work very hard so that Lord Lori will treat her the same way he treated Chesca the next time he encounters a similar situation.

Of course, she wasn't jealous of her sister.

However, since they knew that the lord still treated them differently in his heart, they definitely did not want to continue being treated differently.

They are all subordinates, aren't they?

Cheska was indeed earlier, but as time goes by, ten years is not considered 'long'.

She will wait for the day when she can be on equal footing with Chesca.

Charles curled up on the sofa, thinking over and over but still couldn't understand: "No, why would a man think that a woman who sees him crying and calling for her mother would think he is worthy of dependence?"

Valera didn't expect Charles to still be thinking about this question: "Why do you think that a prince like Alex would consider the woman's thoughts?"

Even though their parents were not good, the couple really discussed things with each other and even considered each other very carefully. Even Count Montes, no matter how many little tricks he had, had to pretend to respect the 12th-level knight when dealing with matters related to Lady Yagris.

Therefore, Charles and Taylor, as well as most of the young men in the Knights of Yagris, all respect women.

When considering something like marriage, the first reaction is whether the woman is willing to accept their love.

Otherwise, the Tollers wouldn't have suffered such a terrible accident.

After all, he had never shown in front of them that he wanted to pursue Valera.

However, what he wanted was that the Tollers would let Valera marry him with a large dowry without him asking... No one with a bit of common sense would think so.

This is why many women in the Montes Territory respect Lady Yagris.

Including that Ms. Pat.

In the past ten years or so in Montes Territory, she rescued hundreds of little girls.

Even if some people finally choose to live their own lives, it does not mean that they are not grateful to Ms. Pat, nor does it mean that they do not know that they can live like a human being entirely because of the protection of Mrs. Yagris.

However, outside of the Montes Territory, there were few male nobles like Charles and his friends who would consider the feelings of women.

When they fail in pursuing a woman, they only think about the fact that they are not as capable as the other suitor, rather than why the woman did not choose him.

Alex will definitely be no exception, he will only go even further.

Otherwise, he would not have expressed his affection for Valeera in this way.

To put it bluntly, if Valera is willing to accept Alex's pursuit despite his seemingly nonchalant behavior, doesn't that mean that she has ulterior motives?

On the surface, Alex was helping Miriam pass on the message!

A vassal baron and a future king, choosing a king who didn't love her that much but was willing to show a little imperfection for her... No one would find it strange, but they would definitely shake their heads at her vanity.

Even though Valeera would certainly refuse both, why should she be put to this test and be criticized for such a trivial matter?
Baron Lori's words made it clear that it was the top leaders of the Dark Night Church who knew and saw these things.

And in the eyes of the people of the North, Dark Night is just a part-time killer organization that sells intelligence... No matter how good the Dark Night Church is to the civilians in its own parish, the people of Storm Parish will never feel it.

Therefore, Valeera had no feelings other than annoyance, let alone being moved by his behavior.

Only a girl who already has feelings for him would fall into such a trap.

A sneer flashed across Valera's lips: "Don't mention this matter again.

However, next time Miriam talks to you, remember to tell him some key points. "

It's just right, let her see who Leon will choose between Miriam, who is said to be as close as a brother, and Alex, his real cousin.

It is true that Valeera has never been attracted to Miriam, who has been pursuing her, but she does not dislike this swordsman who has been standing outside her safe zone and showing his affection to her.

No matter how much or how little, the other party really loves her, and what he sees is Valeira as a person.

As for the considerations and repetitions behind love, since Valeera had never thought of accepting Miriam, there was no need to consider them.

That's something she would think about too.

Valera knew very well that after so many years of being influenced by her parents, she was no longer able to pursue the so-called true love.

Even if one day she really gets married, she will weigh the pros and cons and choose the most suitable one between the person who loves her and the person she also likes.

However, having this opportunity to weigh the pros and cons, Valeera already feels that she has no regrets.

Charles pondered for a while before he figured out what his eldest sister wanted to do: "Are you worried that Count Leon will do something unnecessary because of his cousin relationship with Alex?"

"Normally, not." Valera clicked her fingers, "After all, the attitude of our king is very clear.

This was a test for Alex.

If he can rely on his own abilities to complete the mission of returning home, then all the years he has spent in the North will not be in vain.

But, if I can't even do this, then...even if I'm sure I'll marry a princess, a princess is still different."

Therefore, whether to marry a princess who has a strong desire for power and will inevitably conflict with Alex's biological mother, or a princess who is willing to follow in the footsteps of her aunt, all depends on Alex's own ability.

There is no way Leon couldn't have failed to see this... Although they only knew that Leon was a descendant of the White Dragon King, they were not sure exactly to which family he belonged. But at least Valeera and the others could see that this kid was favored.

However, Valera and Charles, who had come into contact with Leon, knew one thing very well: the male lion who named his adventure group Tiger Blade was very rebellious and really valued his brothers.

Valeera doesn't want to be dragged into something that has nothing to do with their territory because of the impulse of their next-door neighbors.
